1
Well I've been a trucker now for twenty years
2
From the Charleston coast to the Jersey piers
3
And sharin' the road with the race car nuts and loggers
4
Sunday drivers scouts on hikes Hells Angels on Harley bikes
5
I never met a roader I didn't like cept them joggers
6
One day I'm rollin' down 1-0-1
7
I got 18 wheels and a 14-ton
8
Radio playin' a good ol' country rocker
9
The day was surely a trucker's dream
10
The sky was sunny and the air was clean
11
When up ahead on the road I seen one of them joggers
12
He was dressed like they do in baby blue
13
With shortie shorts and a headband too
14
I yelled Sweetie I bet that you are the hit of the men's room locker
15
Well I'm a runnin' late with an overload
16
So get your Adidas off a this road
17
I'm LA bound and I don't slow down for dead raccoons or joggers
18
Well without breakin' stride or losin' poise
19
He said you and that rig sure make some noise
20
But I can't talk now cause I'm racin' against the clocker
21
But it's just nine miles to Forkers Leap
22
And if you ain't afraid to race that heap
23
We'll see how that ol' rig holds up against a super jogger
24
Race I must be hearin' wrong
25
The boy's been runnin' in the sun too long
26
The only place he's a racin' to is a doctor's
27
But before I could say hey thank ya no
28
That fool yells ready get set go
29
And the race is on and we're off and gone me and that maniac jogger
30
I could've left him far behind
31
But I played with him like a fish on a line
32
And I stayed about a half a mile behind that sucker
33
Then I pushed her up to forty-five
34
And he sees me comin' and he starts to fly
35
So I kicked her to sixty and shift to high and finally catch that jogger
36
And it wasn't easy
37
Now I'm doin' eighty and I turned to check
38
And he's stayin' right with me neck in neck
39
His hearts a thumpin' like an engine goin' poo poon pucker prooon
40
Then he yelled out I hope you're set
41
Cause I ain't shifted into second yet
42
Then he unwinds and leaves me behind eaten the dust of a jogger
43
Then I see him a joggin' up into the sky
44
And he yells hey thanks for the exercise
45
And I hope that losin' the race was not too shockin'
46
Ya see my dad says heaven's no place to run
47
I try to be an obedient son
48
So I got to come down to earth to do my joggin'
49
Well that's the story take it or leave it
50
My trucker buddies they believe it
51
So do those race car nuts and Harley hoggers
52
And I'm still drivin' much the same
53
Cept I don't call nobody names
54
And I tip my hat each time I pass one of them good old joggers
55
Hey there's one now hey everybody hangin' in there
